This reminds me of the invasion of Iraq, which brought 2 million people (mostly British) onto the streets of London, marching in solidarity against the war. The lies and deceit leading up to that invasion were glaringly obvious. Service personnel lost their lives, not for some noble cause, but seemingly to enrich a few oligarchs. Tony Blair, for instance, is now quite wealthy--and not from a Prime Minister's salary.

I might have minded it less if they had at least been honest.

Give him a break... he skipped lunch- he's hungry!

But seriously, perhaps it took someone with RMS' level of self-awareness to spawn the movement that gave us freedom technology.

How many bodies?

How many crematoria were there?

For how long is this alleged to have happened?

How long does it take to cremate a body in one of those crematoria?

With a little junior school math, we can determine if the allegations have substance.

I believe some people made such calculations and who are now defamed and pilloried by various organisations.

While I agree that the effect you speak of is real, it is not all-encompassing and does not negate the most important aspects of Bitcoin. If we were on the gold standard, the government could contract to pay in gold, and that would still restrain government. So, I don’t think this is something to be afraid of

Maybe your right to peaceful enjoyment can be considered as property. In which case, the owner of the car is destroying your property.

That would balance your right over his car.

Transactions do not negate Bitcoin’s value as money outside traditional control. Also, the State is not a monolith – it consists of various entities with different goals and levels of influence. Assuming uniformity in government action oversimplifies reality. It is worth considering these nuances when evaluating Bitcoin’s role and value.

If we consider the regime's control of the money supply, which, through inflation, funds foreign wars and expands the regime's control, the contrast between Bitcoin and fiat currencies becomes stark.

Rooted in European heritage, yet bound by the chains of modern power, both Europe and America struggle under a transformed dominion. The ideals of freedom -- once enshrined in the American Constitution -- are overshadowed by the same forces they sought to escape. As the storm looms, will we recognise that we are, and as Europeans have for hundreds of years been, subjects, not beneficiaries, of this evolved power?

Once we appreciate this, we can understand why Satoshi.

The irony for Europeans today is profound. The ordinary European feels the grip of power structures -- once embodied by royal families and banking dynasties -- now evolved into global corporations and financial elites.

The American Constitution was a defiant stand by Europeans to break away from this dominion; sound money and the rejection of a central bank were central to this vision. Yet, with the rise of the Federal Reserve and fiat currency, that very dominion has found a foothold in America, capturing the freedoms once fought for. Now, in a globalised world, we Europeans on either side of the Atlantic must recognise that we are subjects, not beneficiaries, of this metamorphosed monster that has overturned the Constitution.

While this question often trips up people and AI alike, I’m certain the Native Americans were well aware of their own land before Columbus arrived.

As a European, I don't inherently oppose a Eurocentric view; however, it's crucial to acknowledge the 'hidden knowledge' that challenges mainstream narratives. Just as Native Americans faced dispossession, we Europeans now find ourselves in a globalised world where our culture is often seen as a blank canvas for others to shape.

Wow! I thought this must be from 100+ years ago!

But then again, dentists still use mercury-amalgam fillings! I thought those would have been outlawed years ago!

I decided to get rid of all amalgam from my mouth in 1992.

When I was 12 years old, I asked myself a question: If Aliens had landed, how would I know?

After a little thought, I reckoned it would have to be on the 6 O'clock news for us all to agree.

Fortunately, times have changed. For many, the mainstream media is the source of gossip and lies.
